For this movie which is set in the winter (but filmed during a spring heatwave), Lucille Ball had to wear several layers of heavy clothing and as a result had to be hospitalized for two weeks for dehydration. At this time her doctors also informed her that she was allergic to cigarettes, which she had been chain smoking for 56 years.
Lucy appeared on the Tonight Show with Joan Rivers to promote the movie and shared that she had lost over 20 lbs and that she was refused service at a restaurant while shooting, due to her appearance and the place not recognizing her.
This is the first time Desilu or Lucille Ball Productions (LBP) did not produce a Lucille Ball television project. This is also the first time the entire cast and crew have no prior experience working with Lucille Ball.
In a 2004 interview Oscar-winning "Stone Pillow" cinematographer Walter Lassally said that Lucy refused to call her make-up woman Kathryn Bihr (pronounced 'beer') by her last name for fear of being overheard shouting "beer!" on the set. Instead, she decided to call her 'Baker'. Lasally wonders why Lucy just didn't call her Katie.
Ball said that homelessness is what affected her most. She mused that the title really should be "Without An Address."
"Tim: [to Carrie] You think there's something so different about the homeless? A few bad breaks, a few checks that don't come, we could all be sleeping on stone pillows."
"Bag Lady in Ladies' Rm.: I hope ya got a cigarette. Florabelle: No siree bob. Smokin' gets yer lungs."
